“No way.” Amanda didn’t even hesitate. “Didn’t you just get a bonus a few days ago?”
She somehow even knew about Catherine’s bonus.
“You can always earn more money, but if you lose your life, that’s it.” Amanda tapped her on the arm. “Think about it. You and Lorinda need to send me the two hundred thousand as soon as you can.”
With that, Amanda turned and rushed off.
Catherine stuck her hands in her pockets, staring after Amanda as she disappeared down the hallway.
Once Amanda was out of sight and had entered the room, Catherine looked away. She stood there for a few seconds, collecting her thoughts, then walked over to the nurses’ station.
“Hi, could you tell me who Patty’s attending doctor is?”
The nurse checked quickly. “That would be Dr. Ned.”
Catherine nodded, thanked her, and made her way to Ned’s office.
Dr. Ned was the youngest physician at The Cabinda Hospital. He barely had any real experience and hadn’t performed any surgeries on his own.
When Catherine reached his office, she saw his full name on the door and immediately searched him online.
He’d graduated three years ago and had only worked as a medical assistant since then. It was just last month that he officially became a doctor. Technically, he shouldn’t even be the attending physician on a surgery.
So how did he end up in charge of Patty’s case?
“Catherine.”
A familiar voice called her name.
She turned around and saw Harrell standing at the corner, hands in his pockets, his white coat as crisp as ever.
“Harrell?” Catherine’s brows drew together. “Didn’t you say you wouldn’t be at the hospital for a few days?”
